Went out for breakfast at a small diner that has a bunch of free to play old arcade games, then a trip to the range. Punishment doled out!

While I was a military combatives instructor I regularly sparred with my kids from the time they were very little to "prepare them for life". My daughter was always a dainty thing and I made sure I did my best to ensure she could take care of herself, or at least try to take care of herself, when necessary. On the school bus one day when she was in 4th grade, a 6th grade bully (male) was picking on a shy 5th grade boy. My daughter got in his face and told him to back off and leave the other kid alone. The 6th grade boy pushed my daughter and she "lit him up". My daughter got kicked off the bus for three days. When my wife and I were told of this, I told my daughter I was proud of her for doing the right thing and that she better be willing to suck it up and deal with the consequences of her actions. She did, without complaint. It took years for that then 6th grade boy to live down having been put in his place by a girl two years his junior who gave up 20 or 30 pounds to him.

Now tell him to go back to school and when the boy sits down to pull the chair out from under him and then stomp his tail real good so he’s 100% sure not to do it again. This will create a name for your son as well and folks will long remember not to mess with him. He’s not starting it, he’s just making sure it’s finished.
Squash bullies while they are down so they are sure not to get back up!

Sounds like lots of good parenting. I got in a few fights Dad had my back and I knew it. Amazing how things change for the better when your classmates watch you tear into a bully. I raised my boys the same way. Three kids 11 school districts never had a problem at any of them.
I think the fact that they were confident and were top end wrestlers deterred a lot of kids from crossing them. They were tough and in shape, average size and could prolly put any kid they wanted to head first in a garbage can.

And the a-hole who started it got, what? Same punishment, 2 day suspension. You know how it is though, kid peer punishment for getting whooped when you’re being an azz is way worse. I consider that matter over.
